A New God-Game Rules System - Game Thread

[Kaiser Omnik]

Everness, who had just came back from the Creation Forges he made for the gnomes, saw Kroloth and greeted him.

"Don't stay there, Kroloth. You're a god, after all! You don't get to wait at my doorstep like everybody else. You're always welcome inside, you know."

[Ipphli]

Kroloth bows his head and walks inside and upstairs. "Thank you Everness. But I don't plan to stay long. Father has granted me a plane of my own, and so here I am to fulfill my promise. Would you like to see it?"

[Kaiser Omnik]

Everness frowned.

"A promise? You promised me something? Oh! Now I remember. Well, show me the way."

[Ipphli]

Kroloth nods and leaves, making sure Everness follows. They appear on a large, flat plain where numerous minotaur and mran compete in varying contests or battles. In the distance, one can see mountains, forests, and even a small sea. In the middle, equidistant from all of these, lies a city surrounding a large fortress. Outside the city walls lies a massive coliseum.

Kroloth waves his arm, taking in everything. "Welcome to Esgard, my home and the home of my people after death. Here they may compete for eternity, or rest, as they would. But come, I will show you my keep." With that, they travel to the fortress. They walk through halls decorated with weapons, suits of armor, and variuos vases and tapestries depicitng battles and contests.

Once they reach the great hall at the keep's center, Kroloth leads Everness through a side door to a small study. A fireplace dominates one wall, windows another, and a large tapestry depicting an epic battle between two tribes of minotaurs. Kroloth gestures to two large chairs. After sitting, he takes one of the large mugs and gestures for Everness to do the same. "Please, drink. Its called mead. So tell me, what do you think?"

Everness worked so hard on creating his new forges (cr 393) that he had little energy left to teach the reapers, and they began to lose contact with him (Botch -new Cr Str 357), he decided to rest and rebuild his strength (-11 overall resistance).

Kroloth wrought the mighty Kirkus, true and honorable protectors (cr str 354), however working with astral mineral is tiring and so he rested (+82 overall resistance).

Mycellius showed the dusk shiners a new way of nature, strengthening their ties to the natural world (new cr str 661), he was pleased and sat to watch them work a while (+72 resistance overall)

Cthulu sat in the dark, laughing at it, and writing insane musings of arcane power in his book, binding it in skin and chaos he gave the world the necronomicon (cr str 207), he sat in the darkness a little longer to soak in it's insanity (+75 resistance overall).

Don joins Kroloth & Everness in Esgard, a mug of mead already in hand I propose a toast to Everness, his river of time allows the judgement of souls in a fair fashion, his artefacts promote knowledge and growth, and his races are wise he raises the mug in the air and then downs it quickly I have a gift for you, for your wise leadership Don takes a small yellow box from behind his back, it is tied up with red ribbon. (Gain a new domain at level 1)

[Mike_the_Mystic]

Mycellius Sends a telepathic note to Everness and Kroloth. "My domain is free to any god, Though my drink to you would be water, the cleanest and most pure found in the heavens, coming from a river that flows from the very essence of neutrality" He said mentally.

[Ipphli]

Kroloth bows to Don. "You honor us with your presence Father." He glances at the present curiously, then smiles at Everness. "Congratulations my friend."

[Kaiser Omnik]

Everness bowed to Don and took the box. He suddenly felt a surge of power.

"It is an honor, father. Thank you."

He then drank with his fellow gods. He found the mead a little too strong to his taste, but it wasn't bad either.

"Well, Kroloth, it's a fine plane you have here. I'll be happy to come back and visit you sometime. Now, I must return to my duties. I have something to give to my people. Farewell!"

Everness left Esgard and returned to the northern island. There he shared some of his newfound knowledge with his people, teaching them advanced mathematics. He tried to win back the affection of some of the lost reapers at the same time.

The Keeper of Time looked at the timeforged civilization and was pleased by their technological level. His priests did a good job maintaining the sacred sites. However, he saw that the timeforged no longer feared death. They lead comfortable lives. They felt too secure. This frustrated the death god. If they weren't challenged, the gnomes would become lazy. So he went to the central part of the island which was still largely uninhabited. He transformed the landscape into a marsh. He populated it with many monstrous beasts and restless spirits. The land was unnaturally cold and only a handful of plant species could grow in its soil; all others died in a matter of days.

((OOC: Gain Knowledge domain.
Creation- Location - The Moorlands
Religion- Bolster Reapers (again)
Battle- Heal
Tech- Mathematics))

[Ipphli]

Kroloth watches Everness leave before turning his attention back to his own people. Both the minotaurs and the mran were working well together. They had even begun building boats to venture out onto the oceans! Pleased with this new advance, Kroloth put some thought into what he should create next.

The agreement he and the others had reached was okay, but he hated depending on others to supply his people with what they would need to survive. That when Kroloth had an idea. First he would need to prepare. So, Kroloth began carving a city inside the mountain, under Karos, with entrances leading into the city. Yes, that should suit them just fine...

Cthluhu laughs maniacly at the creation of the new realm, her felt its ebb in flow like that of the gravy in a roast chicken pan on all hallows eve. (yes I'm getting more chaotic.) he then set about creating a tree in this dark cave that was sustained off of the blood of the sacrficed it basicly grew whereever, and bore fruit of the strangest blood red, that is said to bestow a random boon upon the being that picks the most rotten fruit.

[Don the Bastard]

Don had an insanely busy weekend. Will do a turn resolution now.

[Fan]

[Don the Bastard]

[Fan]

4 actually Mike the mystic, me, Omnik, and Illphi.

[Kaiser Omnik]

It's your choice Dan. I'm a little disappointed however, I thought it went well.

[Don the Bastard]

Mike didn't do anything this turn, other than talk to you guys.

[Kaiser Omnik]

I liked the timeforged . I'll have to recycle them in another game somehow.

[Fan]

Mike didn't do anything this turn, other than talk to you guys.

I think he was waiting for you to post Don. Htat, and hes on now so that may change.

[Ipphli]

Well it was fun while it lasted. See you guys around...

[Lord_Asmodeus]

I'm still playing, its just hard to find time to post... sorry.

[Fan]

You know I find it kinda funny, yet I find it kinda sad. We're ALL on yet no one is posting IC>

[Don the Bastard]

Thanks for those of you who PM'd me feedback, how about we put this thread into stasis then, until we are all in a better position to post narratively.

[Kaiser Omnik]

You know I find it kinda funny, yet I find it kinda sad. We're ALL on yet no one is posting IC>

Well three of us have already acted this round.

Anyway we can always put this thread into stasis like you said, Don.

[Don the Bastard]

I know FF fanboy is running a nations game, Asmodeus is trying to get a 4th ed goblin warparty game to run (needs a co-DM btw), and I have my finger in 4 or 5 pies right now, maybe I was a bit ambitious trying to run a turn every day. Will think about what I can give to this game, can you guys let me know how often you would be happy with an update?
